web and video conferencing is an up-and-coming field of activity

Sat, 03 Oct 2009 03:47:39 -0700

if you want to make money in an online business, then you need to find a product or service that is fresh, up-to-date and that hasn?t been beaten to death with hundreds of copy-cat affiliates. Web and video conferencing are relatively new applications, and becoming a reseller of online conferencing services could be a good way to start up or add to an already existing online business. Let?s take a look at the prospects for this type of online enterprise.

First of all, web and video conferencing is an up-and-coming field of activity. Business is becoming increasingly globalized and many companies now have staff or clients located in distant locations, sometimes in other countries or on other continents. Online meetings are being used by some of the leading enterprises, but there are many more organizations that have not even begun to take advantage of web or video conferencing.

This is a huge market waiting to be tapped, and with the increasing penetration of broadband use both in the workplace and at home, the market grows larger with each passing month.

Just as there are relatively few companies using web and video conferencing, there are comparatively few resellers or affiliate sellers of these services to compete with. If you would like to get into this business then you should do an online search for web conferencing resellers or affiliates, and choose a program that you can effectively handle.

Typically, affiliate programs for these kinds of services are easy to enter. In many cases all you have to do is sign up and get an affiliate code or url and paste it onto your website and you are in business. However, if you want to be an effective affiliate for web and video conferencing, or for that matter, any other product or service, the best way to sell it is by using it yourself and really knowing what it is all about. Only then can you truly recommend the product in a convincing way.

A step above an affiliate is to become a reseller. Usually this requires a comprehensive training in the web and video conferencing system and there may also be an entry fee attached to becoming a reseller. Whereas affiliates simply refer potential clients to the conferencing service, Resellers are responsible for signing up the clients themselves. The advantage though, is that a reseller is likely to get a higher percentage of the signup and monthly subscription fees paid to the conferencing service by his or her referred clients.

If you are successful as a reseller then you will earn a residual income for as long as the people signed-up by you subscribe to the conferencing service.

Whether you decide to become an affiliate or a reseller, the key to cashing in on the coming boom in online conferencing is to study the market, know the product thoroughly and then place it before your web visitors or mailing list audience in a compelling and convincing manner. Another key factor to success is to make a timely move, a product or service that is ?new? today will be commonplace tomorrow.

Cell Phone GPS Tracking is One of those Advances

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 02:08:31 -0700

The development of communications technology has long since surpassed the sole ability to access others when they are mobile. Today, mobile communication devices are becoming much more technologically advanced and offer more than the ability to just carry on a conversation. Cell phone GPS tracking is one of those advances.

GPS or Global Positioning System tracks your location by interpreting the data received from 3 or more satellites. This has made GPS a popular feature in cars as a navigational aid.

All cell phones constantly broadcast a radio signal, even when not on a call. The cell phone companies have been able to estimate the location of a cell phone for many years using triangulation information from the towers receiving the signal. However, the introduction of GPS technology into cell phones has meant that cell phone GPS tracking now makes this information a lot more accurate.

With GPS technology now more commonplace in many new cell phones, this means that the location of anyone carrying a compatible cell phone can be accurately tracked at any time. Cell phone GPS tracking can therefore be a useful feature for business owners and fleet managers who need to be able to keep track of their vehicle movements.

Cell phone GPS tracking can also be a useful feature to the emergency services or police when responding to a 911 call from a GPS cell phone. For this reason, the FCC has legislated that wireless networks provide location information for 911 calls made from cell phones. These are known as E911 calls.

As technology advance even further, future features will be even more powerful. Imagine GPS cell phones used as a navigational device. Based on the cell phone GPS tracking signal, they could be used to find your way to a location, calculate your speed based on your location change over time, from this calculate your estimated arrival time, suggest an alternative route and even phone the person you are calling to see with your ETA! Of course in car GPS navigation systems can already perform many of these tasks, however it is the portability of cell phones that makes them so useful for this technology.

Cell phone GPS tracking could also be used to locate the whereabouts of your children and offer protection to elderly relatives should something happen and they need urgent assistance.

These features will help to secure the future of cell phone GPS tracking providing advantages for all.

4 Important Different Ways People Process Your Information

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 02:07:39 -0700

There are four different ways that audience members
assimilate information. They are: visual, auditory,
auditory digital, and kinesthetic. While all members of
the audience will process information utilizing all four of
these approaches at different times, each audience member
will individually tend to rely on one of these approaches
more than the other three.

Visual: These people memorize and learn by seeing pictures
and are less distracted by noise than others. They often
have difficulty remembering and are bored by long, verbal
presentations because their minds will wander. They are
interested in how your presentation looks. They like it
when you use words like “see, look, envision, imagine, and
picture” in your presentation as these words encourage them
to make pictures in their minds.

Auditory: These people are easily distracted by any noises
occurring during your presentation. Typically these
audience members learn by listening, Your vocal tone and
vocal quality will be very important with these people.
Words that work well with people in this category include
“hear, listen, sound, resonate, and harmonize.”

Auditory Digital: These audience members spend a fair
amount of time in their heads talking to themselves. They
memorize and learn by steps, procedures, and sequences.
They want to know that your presentation makes sense. Words
that are effective with these people include “sense,
experience, understand, think, motivate, and decide.”

Kinesthetic: These audience embers often speak very slowly.
They are much more oriented towards their feelings than
people in the other three categories. They learn by
actively doing something and getting the actual feeling of
it. They are interested in a presentation that “feels
right” or gives them a “gut feeling.” Words that are
effective with these audience members include “feel, touch,
grasp, concrete, get hold of, and solid.”

Approximately 40% of the population are primarily visual,
approximately 40% are primarily kinesthetic, and the
remaining 20% are primarily auditory and auditory digital
in how they process information.

You've Got Chat!

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 22:28:48 -0700

A dear friend called me to tell me she is tying the knot. While congratulating her, I asked her who the lucky guy was. She said she met him online. I was not only surprised but excited about the prospect of meeting somebody I would like online.

For all who were bewitched by the movie You've got Mail, I have got news for you. Your mail is waiting to be opened. Just initiate the process and watch the results.

When my parents got married, my dad had to move away from home to make a living. My mom saw him after two years and the only communication would be the letter sent every two weeks or month. I wish technology had visited the earth a little earlier. They would have had little problem in being so far because at the click of the mouse, they would've been able to write to each other, hear or maybe even see each other.

Having a boyfriend across the seven seas is not an unimaginable thing anymore. Maybe physical presence is important. But think back to that relationship you called off only because you had little means to talk being in different countries. Talking is something so essential to human beings. It's hard to live without it.

And thanks to Alexander Graham Bell and Charles Babbage, two wonderful gadgets were born -the telephone and the computer. The cell phone that you carry even if you forget a hundred other things and the laptop that you open every now and then have made you so close to your dear ones. Messages are sent at lightening fast speed and everyone you need is at hand.

Single phone chat lines introduce you to a world that speaks different languages and wears different clothes. You may have not been aware that someone in Russia liked the same music that you listen to and study the same subject that you do. Maybe, these are only the first things to get you talking and the rest, as they say, is history.

There are some numbers advertised on television and other media where you can call specific numbers to chat with single women and men. You may be entering into a conference call with several people and you may be encouraged to stay on the phone for a long time. Not only does it run up your phone bill, it also makes you feel emotionally drained. If you were on the lookout for some friendship, you would be disappointed. However, do not be disheartened. Be smart and try something else like online chatting, where you don't need to spend any money.

There are reports that say that legitimate services are those that require you to leave a voice message and then, the person calls you back.

There may be fees attached to some sites. However, you may not have to pay at the outset. If you decide to proceed with a certain friend, you can go ahead and pay. Dating online can be as much fun as a candlelight dinner. After all, you have no choice but to talk.

Good communication: - Move Out of Your Comfort Zone to Create Better Chemistry.

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 01:41:47 -0700

Ever notice how comfortable you feel with certain people? You can say and do what you want, and communication flows smoothly.
Then, there are those OTHER people. The ones whose footsteps in the hallway make the hair on the back of your neck bristle as you put on your armor for the battle that will ensue.
It seems as if no matter what you say or how you say it, good communication doesn’t happen. Your message is distorted, and you feel frustrated, misunderstood and even angry.
One of the major reasons for this common workplace phenomenon is people’s different behavioral style. You can be naturally conflictive when you behave naturally!
There’s hope. Behavioral experts have made it relatively easy to understand why people act and react the way to do. And, once you better understand yourself and others, you can modify your behavior in different situations since people like to be dealt with in their style. It will help you make the sale, improve teamwork, manage better, reduce conflict and improve communication. These principles have been espoused since Greek mythology and furthered by people like Hippocrates, Carl Jung and William Mars ton.
The four major behavior patterns are dominance, influencing, steadiness and conscientiousness (DISC). Each of us is a combination of all four, but almost everyone finds at least one or two of the styles most comfortable.
Dominant styles are easy to detect. They sport a strong handshake, steady eye contact and exhibit a confidence that may overwhelm less powerful people. They prosper by solving challenges … and often are a challenge for others. They don’t get ulcers; they are carriers. They are risk takers and thrive as CEOs of their own companies and big corporations. To get along better, provide brief, direct answers. Stick to business and the results they desire. Ask “what” questions.
Influencers are natural networkers. They are still working the room, hallways and parking lots long after most people have left. Usually, people talk at 160 words a minute. High “Is” comfortably speak at 400 words a minutes, with gusts up to 700 words. They are spontaneous and change plans at a moment’s notice. This can result in piles of papers on their floors and desks, the top of which they haven’t seen since they got it. They thrive in sales, public relations and other jobs that “deal with people.” Provide a favorable, friendly environment and let them verbalize about people, ideas, and the weather and on and on. Supply testimonials, as they want to know “who” is using your products and services and attending your after-hours. Focus on building relationships!
Steady people are just as their moniker indicates: Amicable, calm, soothing, sincere, and loyal and the consummate team player. They are so nice … dogs come up and pet them! They are most comfortable when everyone gets along, thus, the most disappointed when conflict arises. They often climb into their shell, hoping the disagreements will disappear. They are by far the best listeners and often are cornered by the natural networkers! Provide a sincere, personal and agreeable environment. Focus on answers to “how” questions. Assure them you will personally follow up.
Conscientious people are analytical, quality control people who make sure things are done right. Usually, they think they can do it “most right.” As managers, they have sticky fingers and micro-manage. They seem to have computers in their heads and compare what is said to their database. If it fits, they keep it; if not, they discard it. This process (and they spent a lot of time processing), takes time and, therefore, they are the least verbal. Prepare your case in advance and logically present pros and cons. help them see the “whys.” Be prepared to provide lengthy explanations … and leave the small talk behind.
Understanding your personal preference(s) and those of others will help you improve your bottom line results.

A Line for More Extension...

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 06:49:41 -0700

I recently replaced the business phone systems in the company I own to accommodate the needs of my staff. I wish I could say that it was to accommodate the needs of our customers, but sadly, that isn't the case. You see, our old phone system had many more extensions than we had lines for. It was built with the assumption that inter-office communications would be utilized more than incoming and outgoing calls. Since my company deals primarily with internet business and doesn't do much in the way of transactions over the phone, the system I put in place in the late 90's had served us well until very recently. As of late, I have had vendors who had traditionally reached me by phone sending me e-mails. They were complaining that it's often impossible to get through to me. I looked into the matter and this is what I found… Most of my employees were spending a great deal of time talking on the phone. They weren't talking to vendors, customers, service providers or other business entities. Instead, they were utilizing the phone for personal reasons.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not the type of boss who thinks it's never acceptable to talk on the phone. I understand that during the workday, things are inevitably bound to come up which require employees' attention. We've all been there. Perhaps a child is sick or the car is in the shop needing repairs. I understand that these things often require time spent on the phone. Judging from the traffic on my lines and the astronomical phone bills I was receiving, however, this was way beyond what I think any employer would consider acceptable.

So, I decided to replace the old phone system. The new system has a line for every extension, including mine, so that vendors or anyone else will be able to reach me at any time. Since the new phone system also offers increased functionality, I had an additional feature programmed in.

Now, whenever someone makes an outgoing call, they must dial in their own code so that both the number they call and the times spent are recorded. These records are matched to the phone bill and all employees are required to mark the non-business-related calls they make each month. Since the calls bear their code, they cannot say it wasn't them who made the call. Of course, they must pay for these calls. I have noticed that phone times (and my phone bills) have decreased substantially.
